The French called it 'explication de texte': closely observing the what, why, and how of a text as established by the text itself. It's what we tend to do when we 'exegete a passage'. Westminster called it the 'due use of the ordinary means'. This series claims to be no more than that, but in so doing aims to show the immeasurable comfort we receive from God when we flee to, cling to, and delve into his word.
I recently saw a table of religions that listed the name of “the divine” in each religion. I was heartened to see it listed God’s name in Judaism as ‘Yahweh’, but I was disappointed (but unsurprised) that Christianity’s name for God was simply listed as ‘God’.
